Let off for Darmian.

Unearthly

Good Italian defending

Krusader

**** off Clarke just hoofing it

Polo_Mint

If that was a peno. you would have penos after every corner in every game in the PL

Tis a foul but will never be given

Nailz

Very steady from Romero so far!

Woeful is being kind. He has been poison.

raze_them_all_

Did rooney get a job as a foot model cos he doesn't seem to want to use his to touch the ball

Johner

Very poor quality game so far.

Korat

This is turgid stuff. It used to be a pleasure watching Utd.

Rooney is a waste of space. He's the captain he should be lighting a fire under their asses but instead he's the most sloppy and lethargic one out there.

Not even, a donkey can at least manage a touch.

Rossi IRL

Hernandez for the 2nd half?

raze_them_all_

I will say matas defensive stuff has come on leaps and bounds, and boy can darmian defend well

Kerrydude1981

If Utd up the gears a bit in the second half they should be winning this with ease.

Rossi IRL

Crap Juan looks injured, on comes ashley young to do nothing.

MagicIRL

Essentially everything that has gone through Rooney has been wasted.

Nalz

Yawn

Hernandez needs service he plays further forward
Not enough being created for him to be considered yet
Rooney dropping deep, but his touch is ****

Nolars

christ up it a gear so slow.

artanevilla

Vertout should be fined by Sherwood for acting the bollocks.

Adamocovic

Performance looked promising until we scored. Ever since they seem to have dropped off intensity and Villa have had more of the ball

JohnDaniels

United been so poor since the goal. Rooney looks a million miles off the pace of the match.

GreNoLi

Mata on the wing didn't work at chelsea so why does lvg think it would work at united unless he's a stop gap solution until a more suitable player is brought in, poor signing by Moyes all the same.

RobertKK

Would prefer either Hernandez to be be brought on for Rooney in the second half. Keep Januzaj on the pitch, Schweinsteiger and Herrera to make appearances.

Please. No chance of LvG taking Rooney off though, maybe just drop him deeper into the CF role Januzaj is playing.

Schneiderlin has not been great.

Ah stop, sure didnt he win their player of the year award playing off the right wing.

Roquentin

they fell asleep after the goal. city last monday kept at it. good goal for us though. hope van gaal gives them a bollicking at half time

Liam McPoyle

Darmian has cult hero written all over him.

Mata who played one of the finest passes you'll see this season for the goal?

Right.

This Utd team are awful to watch.
One shot on target in 45 minutes and that was deflected .
They got a poxy goal last week too.

The match is like a training match ,there is no intensity .

Rooney up front just isnt going to work,he is too slow and his first touch is diabolical.

Harvey Low Fat Milk

Like to see Herrera replace Mata in the second half if he is injured.

He's completely off the pace but also getting little support. He ain't suddenly ****. Not that I care!

Right.

He's a very good player but not world class for me, chelsea did well getting almost 40m sterling for him.

He is miles off the pace and its like a pre season match out there ,its very slow .

Whilst the team have lots of possession,there is usually only one option for each pass ,its far too cautious.
Too much back passing,very few triangles or one two's and very few players running off the ball or even looking for a pass at times.

I don't know why this popped into my head, but how good would Berbatov have been in our current setup?

Chagan

This is dire from both sides.

Not really at least villa are giving it a go

Nice hands Sergio!

Wayne Rooney the worst player on the pitch by a country mile. Incredible to think he'll start again on Tuesday and be ****e again.

Nolars

united need to wake up

Schneiderlin and Blind ain't much better

Rooney as a front man is a joke,first touch is worse than falcao
